Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina in this darkly funny YA graphic novel. When cynical, gothy Kay lets her mom talk her into joining the youth group at their church, she's prepared for the dorky sing-alongs and the cheesy slogans about dodging temptation. What she isn't prepared for is walking in on the clean-cut youth group leaders, Meg and Cortland, in the middle of a real-deal exorcism. Turns out these wholesome Christian teens are demon-hunting soldiers in a secret war that’s heating up fast, and even if Kay wanted to stay on the sidelines, she doesn’t have a choice – she’s a “Blight,” a human who demons can’t possess, and that makes her a target. But Kay's in good hands with her new friends – for them, fighting literal demons is all in a Sunday’s work! If you like your supernatural horror tinged with a healthy dose of comedy, then you'll definitely want to keep an eye on Youth Group."—IGN "A new horror comedy that's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina."—GAMES RADAR / NEWSARAMA "Sure to keep young readers on the edge of their seats."—CBR "Morris has another hit here, following up his Eisner-nominated graphic novel, Bubble. The dialogue is witty and full of inside jokes for any who are ­familiar with the modern church and youth group. McCurdy brings both humanity and the supernatural to her illustrations, giving each character their own unique look. VERDICT: Fun and fast-paced, this graphic novel will 'jump for joy' right off shelves and is for anyone who can see the comedy in worship or identifies with the drive to save their corner of the world."—SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL "Wickedly winky [and] packed with jokes"—COMIC BOOK COUPLES COUNSELING "A distinctly 1990s backdrop with the era's satanic panic, pager tech, and quirky slang lightens the mood of demon fighting and religious existentialism, as Kay comes to terms with the intersections of faith and her newfound abilities. Thoughtful coloration contrasts the gravity of different scenarios throughout the work, with purple hues signaling interactions with demons, greens and blues emphasizing dread-ridden battles, and pinks relaying emotionally loaded conversations. Though the work could use a bit more world building and is more progressive than one might anticipate for the story's time period, Morris makes up for all with a nice contrast of humor and interfaith ponderings."—BOOKLIST "A wonderful mix of teen life and horror. Filled with likable main characters, it walks a tightrope between relatable teen issues, comedy, and demonic possession."—GEEK VIBES NATION "Genuinely funny... If you ever participated in church youth groups as a teenager, you owe it to yourself to check out Youth Group."—SMASH PAGES "The illustrations are appealing, and fighting demons is always an intriguing premise for a book... It's a good choice for high schools where graphic novels are popular."—MS. YINGLING READS "An incredibly amusing take on teens fighting demons by night after praying by day, it's a book that entertains from the first few pages to the last. Beautifully drawn, excellently told, with characters that are wholly relatable and inspiring, YOUTH GROUP is aimed at a younger audience but is easy reading for all ages."—PINT O COMICS "Funny and charming."—THE WRITERS PANEL "Writer Jordan Morris and artist Bowen McCurdy dive back into the '90s for a story about friendship, faith, and demon-slaying."—COMICS BEAT "Youth Group is a delight of a book, filled with smart, fun dialogue, fully-formed characters, and a novel look at the paranormal. Whether you're a former member of a Bible study group, you're fascinated by religious practices, or you just like a good ol' fashioned yarn featuring fighting the hordes of hell, Youth Group is a book you should definitely make sure to delve into."—FREAK SUGAR "A fast-paced, energetic graphic novel that wonderfully combines a coming-of-age story with demon-fighting action. The great storytelling by Jordan Morris and visually striking artwork from Bowen McCurdy creates a wonderful reading experience that leaves us wanting more from this crazy world they created."—CAPES & TIGHTS Jordan Morris is a Los Angeles-based writer of a bunch of different things but most importantly, comics.
